Default Several target cells in the solver

I have some option market prices and I also have a model based on 5
parameters which calculates the prices of options.

I want solver to find those 5 optimal parameters which minimizes the
differences between the observable market prices and my calculated
theoretical prices! There must be a away to set solver `s target cell"s" to
be the differences between individual options? Ahy help?

I have tried setting as target the sum of the squared differences but that
doesnt find the opimal parameters either. Thx

Simultaneously minimize multiple cells? No, not really. After all, what
would you have Solver do if two cells had their minimum values at two
different combinations of 'adjustable cells?'

Hi

I m using excel 2003 and I would like to know if it is possible to set
several target cells to the solver.
As we have several adjustable cells, is it possible to minimize up to 4
results for instance ?

Thanks
